Summary

Nucor reported third-quarter 2026 net earnings attributable to stockholders of $1.32 billion, or $5.80 per diluted share, on net sales of $11.25 billion, up from $607 million, or $2.63 per diluted share, a year earlier. CEO Leon Topalian credited robust demand across key end markets, the first heat at its West Virginia sheet mill and the start-up of a second galvanizing line at Nucor Steel Berkeley, and Nucor said it expects fourth-quarter earnings to be in line with or modestly higher than the third quarter.
